Sung Tieu: 1992, 2005
At first glance, Sung Tieu’s large-scale exhibition 1992, 2025 at Berlin’s Kunstwerke Institute for Contemporary Art (KW) is a survey in the classic sense of the term: it provides both an overview of the incredible breadth of forms and materials the artist deploys in her practice and a confluence of biographical, institutional, and cultural concerns that have especially demarcated her exhibitions in Germany over the past six to seven years.
